Header Multicom ICS Command Talkback  

The Command Talkback ICS functions as a stand-alone handsfree talkback and intercom controller for large vessels, or as a communications network to centralize all communications functions such as Public Address, Shipboard and Satellite Telephone, as well as all types of handheld and long range radio transceivers. The central com functions are perfect for scientific vessels, military vessels and other large working vessels.

The The Multicom Command Talkback combines talkback, public address, telephone, radio communications, and general alarm into one package for total communications interface and control. The Command Talkback can be a standalone talkback/high power intercom/alarms controller, or part of a communications network for all types of wireless and hard-wired stations.

Great for passenger or military vessels with multiple talkback and communication stations, for research vessels with multiple communications stations and a communications operator, or workboats and drilling ships that need dependable communications for multiple stations.

 

The Command Talkback CT20 ICS can also integrate with the Multicom Voyager ICS or the Explorer ICS for expanded communications and talkback control at the pilot or control console when multiple paging zones and alarms are necessary.

Handheld Radio Interconnection

The basic system allows the user to combine up to 20 intercom/talkback stations into one communications network that also broadcasts alarms. Allows integration of telephone and radio modules.

  • Quality and Dependability The Command Talkback ICS is a digital system that delivers higher fidelity sound for clearer vessel communications. For over a quarter century- Multicom has built top notch marine systems that last.
  • Expandability This system can be easily integrated with out other ICS systems to meet your vessel's requirements, unlike the analog systems offered by others.
  • Versatility The Command Talkback ICS integrates almost every form of standard communication into one package for total communications. The system may be used for a large talkback system or communications central on a research or drilling vessel.
  • Space savings Multicom ICS systems use a fraction of the space required by older, separate systems.
  • Cost savings The Command Talkback combines all communications systems for faster communications with more people - and it integrates completely with the MicroReliant, the Communicator ICS, the Voyager ICS, and the Explorer ICS systems.
